Furniture truck Star 27 L - 1:25 - GPM

Hi !

With my next project I look back to my childhood.
Such quirky furniture trucks were also available in Graz in the seventies, and when I saw the model sheet of GPM, I was immediately enthusiastic.

Now comes the unique under the knife. 550 pieces are waiting to be assembled on five A3 sheets.

On three A3 sheets there are still 18 building sketches

Now I'm looking forward to the first cut,

With best regards

Kurt - thats a great subject!

Going to be fun to build something a bit different. And a reasonable part count!

I have this one, so I will be following along! Are you using laser cut parts or any other enhancements, or building just from the book as instructed?

Welcome to …

all Visitors ,

@ modelperry : I do not use laser cut parts or any other enhancements

But let's start now ...

From the first four parts of the longitudinal beams of the ladder frame are made, this is done without any reinforcement ... the two transverse profiles ...

... close the frame ... which is now being complained about to avoid delay

With best regards

Kurt

Four frame tubes that are rolled ... and glued into the frame ATTENTION! In the inner part 1B, the markings for the frame tubes are printed incorrectly.

Parts 5 - 8 ... will be in front
... and installed at the back

With best regards

Kurt
